She laid 12 total, but a couple may be slugs, and 1 came out smashed stuck in between 2 others. I'll wait to see what happens. A couple of them look a little translucent, and I'm not sure what that could mean. Does anybody Know? Derek

Derek, it is my feeling that most if not all of those eggs will go bad. The translucent look is not good.

The 3 that appear translucent definitely seem to be infertile, however the remaining 8 look just fine to me. Elongated eggs are very common in their early stages of development. I would say that you have 8 babies on the way, just let them do their thing.
